WASHINGTON, D.C., Jan. 8, 2019 – FiscalNote,
a technology and media company providing information services and
software that connect the world to their governments, today announced a
partnership with Georgetown Law Professor Chris Brummer to launch new
coverage of fintech and its implications. The coverage begins with
today’s release of Brummer’s exclusive analysis of the worldwide
implications of crypto asset regulation in light of anticipated reports
by two leading European Union financial regulatory authorities that are
expected to be issued this week.
Brummer’s
exclusive analysis of the new regulatory reports, published first in
CQ, covers an imminent push by regulators to begin harmonizing crypto
asset regulation in the EU, as well as move towards a bespoke,
independent treatment of crypto assets. The efforts could have global
reverberations for U.S. investors and market participants, according to
Brummer, as well as make the region a more competitive locale for crypto
asset transactions.
An
expert in global technology, finance, and governance, Brummer will be a
leading voice in providing in-depth analysis on the implications of
this regulation, alongside veteran CQ journalists. Coverage will span
FiscalNote’s media assets, including CQ and Roll Call, and will include
new video and podcast content, beginning with a podcast being released
tonight that highlights Brummer’s analysis of these important regulatory
developments.
“Businesses,
consumers, regulators and lawmakers need expert insights in order to
better evaluate the implications of fintech developments and related
policy decisions,” said Josh Resnik, Chief Content Officer and
SVP/Publisher, FiscalNote. “We are excited to add Chris Brummer’s
expertise to our leading policy coverage in order to provide the best
possible guidance for our readers and subscribers.”
Brummer,
Faculty Director of Georgetown’s Institute of International Economic
Law, routinely participates in global regulatory dialogues, and has
testified before US and EU legislative bodies. He was twice nominated by
President Obama to serve as a Commissioner on the Commodity Futures
Trading Commission.
This
launch of this company’s latest coverage vertical comes following the
strategic hire of Josh Resnik, Chief Content Officer, brought in to
guide its strategy for producing, distributing, and monetizing content,
including serving as SVP/Publisher of CQ and Roll Call, as well as
leading all content licensing and distribution partnerships. FiscalNote
acquired CQ Roll Call in August
for
$180 million, combining the strengths of complementary businesses and
infusing CQ Roll Call’s award-winning journalism and content with
FiscalNote’s proprietary technology.
